etched leaves pendant on silk

First to recommend

Description

This lovely small and subtle pendant has been created by etching a dense pattern of leaves into a piece of sterling silver, before sawing out this simple teardrop shape and doming it slightly at the larger end to give it an organic shape.

The etched areas have been given a soft and muted white silver oxide finish by way of repeated heating. The raised areas have then been gently sanded back, leaving an eye-catching, shiny silver finish.

The pendant has a really nice light weight to it and is suspended on a soft green length of natural silk thread which features handmade sterling silver findings.

Made by me!

Damask pendant on black silk

First to recommend

Description

To create this pendant I etched a decorative damask-type pattern into sterling silver. The silver was then cut out in the shape of a small detail which caught my eye in another damask pattern.

The etched areas of the metal have been left with a matte white silver oxide finish created by a process of repeated heating. The raised surface area has been gently sanded back to give it an eye-catching shiny silver finish.

The pendant is suspended on black natural silk thread which is finished with handmade sterling silver findings.

japanese etch cuff - sterling silver

First to recommend

Description

A beautiful and dense Japanese chrysanthemum pattern has been etched onto sterling silver. The etched areas have been blackened to highlight the pattern, while the exposed areas of silver have been given a brushed, ‘scratchy’ finish.

The strip of silver has been formed into a cuff. The metal is springy, but not so hard that you couldn’t gently make minor adjustments to the shape to suit yourself.
